Suppose that a new detection tool is introduced starting in week 3 and that from week 3 onwards, each fake bill has a 1 in 3 chance of being detected at each transaction. In this case, what is the totalexpected number of times that the fake bills are successfully used in transactions without being detected? Suppose that a group of illegal counterfeiters print 1,000 copies of fake $20 bills and introduces them into theeconomy. Suppose that each bill is used once per week (starting in week 1), and that each time a bill is used, ithas a 1 in 5 chance of being detected as fake. If it is detected, it is removed. If not, it is used again.

5. Assume the below life table was constructed from following individuals who were diagnosed with a slow-progressing form of prostate cancer and decided not to receive treatment of any form. Calculate the survival probability at year 2 using the Kaplan-Meir approach and interpret the results. Time in Years Number at Risk, Nt Number of Deaths, Dt Number Censored, Ct Survival Probability 0 20 1 1 20 3 2 17 1 3 16 2 1 The probability of surviving 2 years after being diagnosed with a slow-progressing form of prostate cancer is .85. The probability of surviving 2 years after being diagnosed with a slow-progressing form of prostate cancer is .85 for the individuals being followed in this study. The probability of surviving 2 years after being diagnosed with a slow-progressing form of prostate cancer is .85 for individuals who decided against all forms of treatment. The probability of surviving 2 years after…

1. A machine can be in one of four states: 'running smoothly' (state 1), 'running but needs adjustment' (state 2), 'temporarily broken' (state 3), and 'destroyed' (state 4). Each morning the state of the machine is recorded. Suppose that the state of the machine tomorrow morning depends only on the state of the machine this morning subject to the following rules. • If the machine is running smoothly, there is 1% chance that by the next morning it will have exploded (this will destroy the machine), there is also a 9% chance that some part of the machine will break leading to it being temporarily broken. If neither of these things happen then the next morning there is an equal probability of it running smoothly or running but needing adjustment. • If the machine is temporarily broken in the morning then an engineer will attempt to repair the machine that day, there is an equal chance that they succeed and the machine is running smoothly by the next day or they fail and cause the machine…
6) In a country with a population of hundreds of millions, where capital punishment is legal, 10000 individuals are charged and tried for murder every year, and those convicted of murder are put to death. Past records consistently indicate that out of those tried, 95% are truly guilty and 5% are truly innocent. Out of those who are truly guilty, 95% are convicted and 5% are wrongly set free, and out of those who are truly innocent, 5% are wrongly convicted, and 95% are set free. Determine the probability that a person who is tried is truly innocent, but wrongly convicted of murder.
